'''Lat 'Ravamee''' was a [[Sangheili]] officer serving the [[Covenant]]'s [[Ministry of Resolution]] as [[shipmaster]] of the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' in the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} Formerly of the [[Zealot]] order, 'Ravamee was given command of ''Truth and Reconciliation'' by the [[High Prophet of Regret]] himself, and would later participate in the [[Fall of Reach]].

Lat 'Ravamee served the [[Covenant]]'s [[Ministry of Fervent Intercession]] as a warrior in the [[Zealot]] order during the [[Ninth Age of Reclamation]]. By [[2552#August|August 2552]], he had been elevated from the Zealot order by the [[High Prophet of Regret]]'s own hand and given command of the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'',{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}}<ref name="wf">'''[[Halo: Warfleet]]''', ''p. 62-63''</ref> now serving the [[Ministry of Resolution]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVG11}} ''Truth and Reconciliation'' itself was personally commissioned by Regret in [[2531]].{{Ref/Reuse|wf}}

Transferred to [[Supreme Commander]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee's [[Fleet of Particular Justice]], 'Ravamee partook in the [[Fall of Reach]] on [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]], taking honor in [[glassing]] the [[United Nations Space Command]]'s fortress planet. Under 'Ravamee's command, ''Truth and Reconciliation'' was one of the first ships in the fleet to successfully track the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} as the [[Halcyon-class light cruiser|cruiser]] attempted to escape [[Reach]].{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}} As the ''Pillar of Autumn'' fled the [[Epsilon Eridani system]], the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' sent the [[human]] cruiser threatening transmissions as the Fleet of Particular Justice pursued the ship into [[slipstream space]],<ref name="transmissions">''[[Transmissions]]''</ref> with 'Ravamee leading the pursuit from his cruiser.<ref name="enc285">'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''p. 285'' (2011)</ref>

The ''Truth and Reconciliation'' and the Fleet of Particular Justice pursued the ''Pillar of Autumn'' to the [[Soell system]], where they discovered [[Installation 04]],{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}} bringing 'Ravamee and his crew to their knees.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} The [[Battle of Installation 04]] commenced when the ''Pillar of Autumn'' arrived in orbit of the installation on [[2552#September|September 19]], with 'Ravamee giving chase to the human cruiser. However, the Fleet of Particular Justice was unable to promptly destroy the ''Pillar of Autumn'' for fear of damaging the ring.{{Ref/Reuse|enc285}} While the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' and a dozen other battlecruisers fired light armaments at the cruiser, the [[smart AI]] [[Cortana]] utilized the armaments of the ''Pillar of Autumn'' to destroy four battlecruisers<ref name="autumn">'''Halo: Combat Evolved''', campaign level ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref> and heavily damage the ''Truth and Reconciliation'',<ref name="halo">'''Halo: Combat Evolved'''', campaign level ''[[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|Halo]]''</ref><ref name="flood">'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''Chapter 3''</ref> before the ''Pillar of Autumn'' was forced to crash-land on the installation.{{Ref/Reuse|autumn}}

Once positioned over Installation 04, 'Ravamee was forced to take his ship to the ring's surface over a desert plateau for repairs.{{Ref/Reuse|halo}}{{Ref/Reuse|flood}} There, 'Ravamee prepared the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' to be the primary staging area for the Covenant forces on Halo.{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}} Meanwhile, [[Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]] was captured by the Covenant and imprisoned aboard 'Ravamee's ship.{{Ref/Reuse|autumn}} In response, [[John-117]] led a force of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] in [[Raid on the Truth and Reconciliation|a raid]] on the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' in order to rescue Keyes. In the ensuing conflict, the [[Spartan-II]] encountered and killed 'Ravamee at his [[bridge]], subsequently rescuing the captain and escaping the ship.{{Ref/Reuse|truthandrec}}

A pious follower of the [[Covenant]]'s [[Covenant religion|religion]], Lat 'Ravamee was a fanatical believer in the [[Great Journey]], more than willing to sacrifice anything or anyone in its pursuit.{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}}{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} 'Ravamee reveled in the honor of assisting in [[glassing]] the [[human]] [[Inner Colony]] of [[Reach]]. He later found himself nearly overcome with joy upon the discovery of [[Installation 04]],{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}} being brought to his knees{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} as his life-long pursuit of the Great Journey absolved in aiding in the discovery of one of the [[Forerunner]]s' [[Halo Array|Holy Rings]].{{Ref/Reuse|nevermore}}

As the [[shipmaster]] of the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', 'Ravamee made his [[bridge]] his private domain, buried in an armored spur of his ship.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} The threatening transmissions 'Ravamee's battlecruiser sent to the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} promised to coldly wipe out humanity and their legacy.{{Ref/Reuse|transmissions}}
